    Default You Should Pay Better Attention Than I Did

    I went to a sale. I didn't pay attention while the cashier was ringing up my purchases. I didn't check my receipt until I got to my car. So I had to get back in line in order to get the error corrected.

    I always check. I figure in my head about what it should be give or take a dollar.

    I like to watch as it is being rung up, then I can question it at the time. Saves a lot of time and hassle/

    That's what I try to do unless I get distracted. Then I go back inside the store. You see so many sale prices prices in a lot of stores but the items don't ring up at that price - you really have to pay attention.
